I can see the improvement. The newer one has more of a style to it, especially when you compare the faces. The newer is also less 'stiff', going by the tail, ears, and the foot sticking up. I also like the eyes on the newer one. c:

I guess I'm the only one who likes the new ones better? To me, the new ones all look a lot better as it looks like you've effectively developed your style but I think the life drawings you have posted have helped your style be more believable as well, if that makes sense. The new ones are a lot more expressive and loose in the way they're drawn and colored. There's nothing that appeals to me about the old ones; I think you've improved.

I personally prefer the ones from when you were younger (everyone is entitled to their own opinion) but i can see how much your style has changed, it is a lot more unique than the original, maybe you should try doing this every year with the same pics, it would be really interesting to see how a person's style changes over the years biggrin

Finally someone who agrees : P
Personally I find looseness and confidence to be really redeeming qualities in art that the previous posters failed to notice >.>

What do you like about the old one? is it the saran wrap hair or maybe the tree trunk neck? Do you like how the second one has explosive diarrhea for a tail as well?
